The Electronics Corporation of Tamil Nadu (ELCOT) has allotted land to the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board (TNEB) for installing power infrastructure at the proposed information technology park at Ilandhaikulam near here.
“Two 10 MVA (Mega Volt Amperes) capacity transformers will be erected at the 1.17 acres allotted along with one 110 kilo volt substation initially. Depending on the power requirement of entrepreneurs, either one or both will be enhanced to 16 MVA,” K. Balasubramanian, Chief Engineer (Distribution) of Madurai region, told The Hindu here on Monday.
The TNEB was awaiting detailed information regarding the number of units and their individual power requirements from ELCOT.
The power requirement of Ilandhaikulam IT Park would be lesser compared to the one at Vadapalanji, which was expected to occupy over 230 acres.
The Ilandhaikulam IT Park would occupy around 30 acres.
“We estimate that Vadapalanji IT Park would require a 230 kV substation along with one or two 50 MVA transformers,” he said.
The TNEB had asked for 15 acres at Vadapalanji which would include around 6 acres for the substation and rest for residential quarters for staff and other purposes. “While Ilandhaikulam does not require staff quarters in its vicinity, the Vadapalanji substation requires one,” he said.
